The report’s intent was to highlight what children, youth, families, and community members want to see in a reimagined behavioral health ecosystem. In 2022, more than 600 individuals were engaged, convened in almost 50 distinct meetings. This significant investment of time and energy by young people and community members was harnessed to create the YATC report. When the report was released on January 31, 2023, the California Health and Human Services Agency (CalHHS) stated,“This report is foundational to the CYBHI’s goal of ensuring the voices and needs of youth and their families are at the forefront of California’s efforts. It reflects CalHHS’ guiding principles of active listening, focusing on equity, and engaging individuals and communities to ensure programs are informed and developed with their input.”  \nBefore the report’s release, in 2022, the Governor announced the Master Plan for Kids’ Mental Health, combining existing efforts in youth mental health and the new investments under CYBHI. For example, the Mental Health Student Services Act (now named the Behavioral Health Student Services Act) investments were already included in the 2019-2020 budget, independent of CYBHI. This document is focused on the original investments of CYBHI, as they are the investments youth and families were engaged on during listening sessions. It is worth noting that the YATC stakeholder engagement process and subsequent reporting took place after the announcement of CYBHI and its priorities, workstreams, and policies.  \nThe YATC report outlined 12 Calls to Action for a reimagined behavioral health ecosystem from children, youth, and families across California:  \nShift Thinking  \n1  \nAddressing stigma is a foundational first step  \n2  \nCulture is healing  \n3  \nYouth & communities want self-determination; not “empowerment”  \n4  \nRethink treatment: what it looks like and who provides it  \nReimagine Services  \n5  \nHelp must be available before it’s a crisis  \n6  \nMake places for youth to belong, create, and connect to the outdoors  \n7  \nTake care of adults so they can take care of young people  \n8  \nCreate a mental health system everyone can navigate, even when struggling  \nTransform Systems  \n9  \nBuild a representative workforce  \n10  \nDecriminalize mental health, including substance use  \n11  \nUnacknowledged harm gets in the way of hope and trust  \n12  \nTake action to address systemic inequalities and oppression  \nWe crosswalk the 12 Calls to Action outlined in the YATC Report with CYBHI investments made to date, below. We also provide recommendations for future action that the State should take to respond to the Calls to Action. Additional details about CYBHI investments and programs referenced in the crosswalk table are included in the Appendix.  \nYouth at the Center Call-to-Action  \n1 ~~ ~~  \nAddressing stigma is a foundational first step  \n“No, I don’t talk to my family about my feelings because they only judge me instead of actually helping me with my problems.”  \nYoung people called for a culture shift that actively promotes mental health by normalizing rest, restorative practices, healing, therapy, peer support, cultural practices, and","cbCaif0drrF5nNBh","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaif0drrF5nNBh","pdf",2173713,14,"English","# Youth Need vs. State Investment\n## Overview and context of CYBHI and YATC\n## 12 Calls to Action for a reimagined behavioral health ecosystem\n## Crosswalk and investment alignment approach\n## Youth at the Center Call-to-Action 1: Addressing stigma\n## Youth at the Center Call-to-Action 2: Culture is healing","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Youth at the Center (YATC) report within CYBHI?\",\"answer\":\"The YATC report was commissioned to highlight what children, youth, families, and community members want to see in a reimagined behavioral health ecosystem, informing CYBHI’s efforts.\"},{\"question\":\"How many calls to action does the YATC report include?\",\"answer\":\"The YATC report outlines 12 calls to action spanning three areas: Shift Thinking, Reimagine Services, and Transform Systems.\"},{\"question\":\"What types of youth-identified needs are reflected in the first two calls to action?\",\"answer\":\"Call 1 emphasizes addressing stigma by normalizing mental health supports and related restorative and peer supports.
